On February 15, 2007 Kevin and Clara, Bostonians from the South End, hoped to hit the road on their motorcycles aspiring to visit over 40 countries during the course of the remainder of the year...However, due to unforeseen difficulties in New Orleans, our actual departure date was March 1, 2007.

Change in plans

Turns out the ferry from the shetlands to norway is completely booked, so we head south...

To where we are not sure. At least newcastle, maybe Africa or India. Such are the vagaries of our mission.

We made it to Cullen, to enjoy the famous "skink" for dinner. This is as inhabited as a ghost town can allowed to be. We are camped on a bluff overlooking the ocean, where raucous winds aided in our tent preperation, the same ones which buffeted us all day. Another day of wind and rain. Not the plains of Spain here.

Delicious fish and chips just south of the castle for lunch, as we cruised down the east coast. Once a day for me on average, I can feel my body larding up, but it has been 10 years, so I must indulge.
